Fermyn 11th July, 2016

After a dodgy morning with rain and high winds, the sun finally broke through just after noon. First encounter of the day two grounded males on a track corner in South er,  soon to be joined by a third and an uninvited White Admiral. Walking back to Fermyn I must have encountered a grounded male every 50 yards, most fresh and very obliging for a portrait. In all I saw over 20, many grounded, but no females. Maybe they are biding their time. Bearing in mind low expectations at the start of the day it certainly seems that HIM is kicking off at Fermyn.
